Squirrel! From Distracted to Committed: Reading, Training, and Recovering the Search WebinarDistractors show up at every level of Nosework. Food, toys, people, animal odor, social scent, search area novelty, environmental pressure, stress, and reinforcement history can all change how a dog works. Distractors are not one training problem.

Distractors show up at every level of Nosework. Food, toys, people, animal odor, social scent, search-area novelty, environmental pressure, stress, and reinforcement history can all change how a dog works.

Distractors are not one training problem. A dog may investigate competing reinforcement, check an environmental change, respond to stress or pressure, shift into handler-dependent searching, or lose clarity in the task. Those moments can look similar from the outside, yet they need different training responses.

In this webinar, Judith will discuss how to read distractor behavior in context. Handlers will learn how to look at the dog’s interest, intensity, recovery, search history, odor history, reinforcement history, handler influence, and environment to better understand what changed in the search.

We will look at how distractors can affect hunt, odor recognition, sourcing/odor obedience, decision-making, communication, and recovery. Judith will discuss how reward value, odor history, setup design, handler timing, handler pressure, environmental pressure, and search setup influence the dog’s ability to stay committed to the task.

Training through distractors should build clarity, confidence, and stronger choices. Dogs need opportunities to notice competing information, choose the task, and return to odor or hunt with confidence. Handlers must understand when to wait, when to help, how much help to give, and how to recover the search without taking over the dog’s job.

A distractor moment does not have to end the search. Handlers can learn how to recognize the point of breakdown, support the dog appropriately, and help the team return to productive searching.

The goal is to help handlers build better training plans around distractors. Not every distractor problem has the same cause, so the training plan should match the actual point of breakdown. When handlers understand what the dog is doing and what value the distractor has for the dog, they can train stronger commitment, better recovery, and more reliable searches.

This webinar will cover the following topics:

• common types of distractors in Nosework
• reading distractor interest in context
• recognizing competing reinforcement
• understanding environmental and social distractions
• separating distractor interest from stress, avoidance, confusion, or pressure
• understanding handler influence around distractors
• building stronger task commitment around distractions
• using setup design to train better choices
• strengthening reward value and search engagement
• improving handler timing around distractors
• helping the dog recover without taking over the search
• returning to odor or hunt after a distractor
• using distractor behavior to guide future training

Fantastic writing and non-stop action
Format: Kindle
This is a promising, fantastic beginning to what will be a 4-book series. Some readers may be content to read only the first 2 books, but I think you'll find that the story is so good that you'll want to keep reading books 3 and 4. Book 1 is about omega Elvana's introduction to the "Starling" brothers and their search for another missing person, Kelly. It's a bit of a rocky start, with deception and betrayal a key element. Hardly an auspicious beginning. Each member has their own path and purpose in the pack. Their interactions and the resulting narrative are so well-written that I found it difficult to put down. There is a cliffhanger that will have you reaching for book 2 as you finish, so make sure you have it on hand.

Fun read
Format: Kindle
I'm not really into mafia books but I love Roxy Collin's other series so I decided to give it a try. It had the same great romance, spice, swoon-worthy characters and exciting plot that are her signature. Arben was my favorite, although it was a bit sudden how quickly he changed from ignoring her to wanting to be pack. There were almost too many twists/layers of lies to keep track of but I'm looking forward to reading the other books. The only thing that detracted from the story for me was the need for a bit more proofreading. It was mentioned that Kelly is a female and male at different points, leading me to think she changed her mind at some point about the character's gender but didn't go back and edit it to align in all places. Like another reviewer pointed out, step siblings are different than half siblings. They are incorrectly referred to as step siblings because they (allegedly) share the same biological dad. There are a few other typos as well but those aren't a big deal.

Stepbrothers, Secrets, and Sizzling Heat
Format: Kindle
Twisted Lies by Roxy Collins is a wild ride through family secrets, amnesia, and a steamy stepbrother romance. When Kelly discovers her life is built on lies, she ends up tangled with three alpha stepbrothers and an assassin who once helped her through a heat. The tension? Off the charts! The heat is real, and the complications are messy in the best way. Full of twists, secrets, and fated mates? You'll be hooked from page one! Love omegaverse drama with a dash of taboo? This one's for you!

Good read
Format: Kindle
The book has some good twists and turns, but truthfully I was so confused on some things. It didn't have a good flow for me personally. Not sure if it's due to typos or using him/her wrongly, but I thought Kelly was both a guy and a girl. Actually I still don't know, and it made me incredibly frustrated. It would refer to Kelley as him or he, and then again in another part of the story as her she and sister. On to the next book, I hope there is some clarity and a smoother flow. This is a slow burn, and I just don't know how much I care for the Alphas yet. Idk if I recommend.

the lies
Format: Kindle
This is amazing fast pace read that is full of plot twists and lies that keep getting bad. This is a story we’re a omega has been lied to by her mother and finds out that someone is slowing dieing. 3 alpha take the omega and feed her more lies so they can use her against her father so they can find their mate Kelly. This is a dark read and ends in a cliffhanger and so good.
